I just realized I have wavy hair. Growing up, I had semi-wavy but mostly straight hair, so I treated it as straight and so did my mom. I’ve been using generic shampoos and conditioners and always brushed my hair very roughly. As I got older I noticed my hair had gotten even wavier, but with all the years of treating my hair as straight, the waves are just inconsistent and dry.
I don’t even know where to start🥺
Same

Just start treating it like wavy hair. It'll be an awkward phase, but as it grows out and you get it trimmed over time, it'll get better.
Same!! I’m about to be 29 years old and I feel like I’m in middle school again trying to figure out what to do
Lmao meeeee
Your eyebrows are amazing!! I can’t stop staring at them!
Why has nobody replied
I agree!
They are busy staring at the eyebrows
Creepy
Me running to the bathroom to read the ingredients in every hair product I use: 🏃♀️💨
PLS
for 23 years, i never really knew that there was a difference betwern straight and wavy hair. it your hair wasn't curly, it was straight and so i knew my hair was wavy, but for me wavy was just... a type of straight. the only time it had any sort of wave to it was when it was unbrushed or wet. ive been learning more about my natural pattern (mostly 2b, little into 2c. fine thickness and average density, high porosity ) and there really has been a massive difference in the 5 months of change.
omg same!! im 23 and i just never realized that there was so much more to it all i feel kinda behind but im getting there
Literally looked at my hair and said girl I'm so sorry....
When you have curly/wavy hair, your hair is naturally VERY dry. Co-washing or using sulfate-free shampoo allows your natural oils to remain in your hair. Shampooing once a week (or less often) can cleanse your hair so you can get back to keeping it moisturized.
Olivia Disney I wash my hair with shampoo around 2-3 times a week and trying to just brush my hair when it’s soaked after the shower. My scalp gets dry still sometimes any advice?
My hait ar extremely dry and I do everything from oiling to conditioning , I even do hair masks but that dryness never go away. Now I know
I have 2A hair but my hair is naturaIIy oiIy IoI afaik that's aIways been my main issue anyway as a teenager and in earIy 20s (hasnt been as bad since I probabIy dont wash everyday?which was maybe contributing to overcompensating)
Just recently stopped using heat on my hair after using it my whole life, realised I have wavy hair. I was also born with curls/waves but I thought it straightened naturally. This video is really helpful, thank you.
My mom has been straightening my hair my whole life and I have No Idea what to do with my hair
Stop straightening your hair health will come up.
same omg
Stop! I straightened my hair from the age of 10-19 every day. My hair was murdered. Dry, frizzy, barely grew. I stopped touching it with heat unless I really want to style it for a special occasion. The only products I put in my hair are shampoo and conditioner and that’s only 2/3 times a week. I don’t use a hairdryer because it causes further heat damage. And products just sit in my hair and make it gross and make it need washing every day. I’m nearly two years into doing it and honestly my hair has never been so healthy and shiny and manageable. I never thought I could have hair like that
I treat my hair like straight hair because I'm too broke to get the stuff to care for my hair correctly
Girl there are so many affordable products at the drugstore that work well! You shouldn’t feel like you need to spend a fortune on your hair
@@SuhannaDeSilva any products of drug store brands you recommend?
Kids Account Not Your Mother’s and Shea Moisture are good ones that are at the drugstore/Walmart/Target.
I’m 27 and I’ve been treating my hair so bad this whole time!! 😭😭
The underneath of my hair is wavy..but the top half is straight. I’m still debating whether I should start cgm just cus I don’t want to spend all that money and time with no results. What’s your opinion?
I think it’s a personal choice that’s up to you. You can improve the health of your hair without going full blown curly girl but again it’s all your choice.
Similar thing happened to me, my hair was curly underneath & just frizzy on top so I tried out the cgm just for the heck of it. LET ME TELL YOU...IT WORKS. Now I was having the same doubts of “should I spend money” because it can be expensive, so I took a trip to target & got the Not Your Mothers Curl Talk line which works great for type 2/3 hair. I encourage trying the cgm, don’t get deva curl products or products as expensive because you might not stick with it & it might not work for you. I hope this helped & I hope you start your journey🤗
I thought my hair was straight on top and wavy underneath, and my goal was shine and less frizz. But now a few months in and it's a lot more curly than I imagined and I love it. It can be pretty cheap to get started and for me it was definitely worth trying.
I'm 3b on bottom ranging to 2a on top. I keep trying to remind myself that the whole reason I started cgm was to help my hair be healthier so it wouldn't all break off. Learning how to keep hair healthy makes it a much better canvas to work with, whether you're using heat or not.
the lamest Profile the curlyhair subreddit has a beginner routine that costs like $11-12 total I think? I felt overwhelmed too and still do feel overwhelmed but don’t feel like you have to go out and get a silk pillowcase, a diffuser, and 5000 high end products right this second if you just wanna try things out. CGM CAN be really product happy and expensive but it doesn’t have to be
What you said about refreshing, pillowcases and brushing from the roots down makes so much sense now thanks!
I really like that sweater, it looks good on you. Also great video!
This was recommended to me today and it could not have come at a better time! Thank you SOOO much! I just figured it out last week that I needed to pay more attention to ingredients, but your video has just given me even more good advice and is encouraging me to continue my curly hair experimenting. Thanks a million!
I've made all these mistakes. Also i love how your videos are short, sweet, and to the point.
My hair is very curly in the front but straight in the back when my hair dries naturally? Can anyone help
It's is probably heat damage try using a protein treatments to strengthen your hair and deep condoning
@@linasafar8866 I never put any heat on my hair though
My hair is wavy in the front and much straighter in the back! Never used heat either. Same.
Your ends could be weighing your hair down get life half an inch cut off the back!
Moon Light it could just be your hair type or the products you use, if they have any sulfate, silicones or Parabens then I recommend you to throw them out and get more natural products like Maui moisture and Shea moisture and what you could also do is scrunch your hair and if you want put a gel or a mousse and wait for that to dry and scrunch that so you can have Hold in your hair 🙂
Can you make a video on how to exfoliate your scalp?
I’m doing a wash day video next week that includes this
You are so beautiful!
watching this right after refreshing my hair. my hair is big and wild and super wavy and i’m HAPPY!
Lots of great tips...no matter where you are in your hair journey ...thanks for another great video💞💞💞💞
Just gained a new subscriber! Your hair is gorgeous, and those brows?!?! 😍
My mom has always done my hair (I have a hard time to do it because of my autism) and she washes it every day, puts detangler in it, and then brushes it when it’s wet and then when it’s dry. It’s leaves it frizzy and undefined. I’m gonna start using your advice! :)
Tell her to help you! I love this. My 5 year old daughter is non verbal autistic and she has my wavey/curly hair. She hates me doing her hair routine because it's a process and hates her hair touched but the results are so beautiful and she gets many compliments. Also, I only use wide tooth Combs and detangle as gentle as I possibly could 🖤 I hope when she's older she becomes interested in her hair routine. I bet you have very beautiful hair too
5:03 oops i wondered why my hair would always go straight or just bent weird after the third or second day of washing but thanks ill keep that in mind
I appreciate that this is just tips and general care for curly hair. As a guy it’s a pain sifting through vids and it’s all girls going through specific routines for really long hair or women’s hairstyles. Thanks.
Hair care is unisex bby.
Thanks for the helpful tips! ❤️
i just found out yesterday that my hair isn’t completely straight when my mom asked me if i knew i had a wave in the back. she suggested i scrunch my hair and let it dry and sure enough my hair has a bit of wave. i think i’m 2a. but i’ve been treating it like straight hair my whole life and it’s always looked fine. i haven’t even had any issues with frizz except in the back where the main wave is. i really like treating it like straight hair because of the convenience and the money, but i don’t want to cause my hair long term damage. what would be the negative effects of me just pretending i have straight hair forever??
Such a helpful video with really great tips! I’m still learning how to take good care of my hair after stopping the curly girl method. I feel like my wavy hair looked and felt so much better before I started the CG method and I should have never tried it. You’ve earned a new subscriber and I’m about to go through your videos because I need help and you explain things very well. Seriously, you’re amazing. 🙏🏽
I have naturally veryyyyy wavy hair. I had straight hair all of my life until I hit highschool, maybe 8th grade. and then all of a sudden my hair got super wavy and I have no idea how to take care of it.
Orange Juice me too!!
omg same
I hope these teenage hormones correct my hair and make it straight, because I hate having wavy hair.
Thank you soo much for this video. I never realized my hair type and just thought my hair being incredibly poofy was normal. Now I’m trying to take care of my hair right and this video really helped me realize what’s I was doing wrong. 👍😎✌️
My hair isn’t straight *like me*
*same*
same
yes
y e s
You sure?
Wow I’ve been mistreating my hair this whole time😟 very informative! Nice video
great advice!!
Thank you for this video. I always thought my hair is frizzy and damaged 💀cause THEY aren't straight. But looking at black people loving their curly hair made me realise that straight hair isn't default and I LOVE my wavy hair so much now. ❤
I really ike this video, it was very informative and helpful! Also your eyes are literal perfection😂❤
Do you mind making a video on how to properly exfoliate the scalp and reccomend some deep conditioners
Thank you for these tips! Since the day I was born my hair has always been straight & to keep it maintained my mother would use baby oil on my hair which made it shiny. When I became 9-10 I suddenly began to earn an allergy to the oil which I stopped using. After not using it my hair became very broken & curly which recently made hope it can go straight again but it can't. Nowadays my hair has been cut wayy shorter than I wanted and on the back it's wavy while the front is curly. It's also very frizzy. What do you recommend?
yes i refresh my hair with water almost every day, I thought it was a bad thing 😩
Great video!!
I have type 2b / 2c hair that’s very thick and layered and whenever I wash it I do the methods that work for me ex: prayer hands and scrunching, leave in conditioner. And during that day I don’t brush it bc it gets frizzy. Then before I sleep that day I brush it so in the morning it’s not frizzy. I use Pantene shampoo and conditioner as well as it’s a 10 leave in conditioner. Also, I wash my hair every over day, like I take a shower in the morning don’t brush it and then the next day I brush it wear it then the next day I brush and wear it, and wash it at 5 so i sleep with it dry and then brush it before I sleep. And I never put heat on my hair ever. Am I doing the right thing with my hair? And should I continue to brush my hair the following days post shower. (My mom has type 3a / 3b hair and deep conditions and washes it once a week and she doesn’t brush it, however we have different hair types and idk what to do)
Shiiii this really helped thanks sis
for a lot of my life, i didn't realize my hair was wavy. which is kind of funny, considering the fact when i was really young my hair was long and very wavy. my mom has very straight and fine hair so i assumed my hair was the same. i always hated my hair (still do) because it would get so frizzy and it looked like a rats nest whenever i brushed it. i only learned my hair was wavy a few years ago when i got it cleaned up, and i still don't know how to take care of it properly. most of the hair tips i found were for curly hair, so that obviously hasn't worked out for me. but this video did point out a lot of things i wasn't doing to take care of my hair, so hopefully in the future it'll get better.
How often should you exfoliate your scalp, wash your hair, and clarify your hair? Also when should you use warm vs cold water?
Me watching this while brushing my hair top to bottom with a brush for straight hair 👁👄👁
I'm guilty of product switching, but what I do (and it works for me with my 2B/2C hair anyway) is either 1 part Baking Soda to 3 parts water or if my hair is really bad I use more Baking Soda to wash and I use ACV afterwards the wash before I try new. That's how I do my no poo method and it basically restarts my hair so I can try new and know if it's a win, meh, or flop
Just came across this video. My hair is very wavy, but the underneath of my hair is very wavy while the top is less wavy. This I believe is because I constantly have it in a tight bun and have had it since high school. I never got to see my waves propper because in my teen years I constantly straighten it and bleach it. I will do my best to take care of my waves since I’ve been blessed with it💗
Same for the tight bun. I'm wondering how I should pull it up
Refreshing is such a pain 🙄 but needed...
i have really light curls, almost straight hair, but my hair is very dry in nature so I treat it with curl hair products and its working so well😌❤️
Same my hair is so dry and thick that I have to use products for natural hair
Can you make a video of how to define your hair... Mine is curly but it's not defined and it just looks like a nest. Oh, and what brushes am I suppose to use? Btw, I love that you make these vids, I find hair routines everywhere but they're not for 2b or 2c
Super lindo tu cabello👍🏽🌺
I’m suppose to have 2c hair but my hair is damaged because I kept brushing my hair right now I’m trying to revive my hair
I definitely need some help because i have wavy/curly 2b-c hair and it is very frizzy, especially in the top of my head. I do use an exfoliator and i use the shea moisture hibiscus curl shampoo& conditioner but i think my gel and leave in isn't working well and the shampoo isn't doing much for me. idk what products to use to give my hair definition and keep my curls soft and moisturized while avoiding scalp buildup. cus idk how to make the top of my head have definition and softness if i cant touch the top of my head in fear of invoking more buildup. i need help :(
heyyy!! so glad I found your channel! do you brush your hair daily? also what brush do you use if you do? thanks so much xx
I don’t brush or comb my hair between washes, I only use a wet comb to detangle my hair before or during my shower
so helpful. for real
All this time I had no idea that wearing a ponytail to bed is bad for my hair. I just watched this video trying to learn how to better care for my hair. How about wearing it in a loose rope braid? Would that be okay?
I workout every single day and sweat a lot, so I have no choice but washing and going through my wavy hair routine everyday... I don't love it but I have to... I would wash it every 3 days otherwise. Is there any advice on that? Is there anyway to make everyday wash less "damaging"?
My hair is exactly as curly as yours is then I treat it like straight hair :( and it looks okay? Should i go with the cgm method?
Hey, I'm a guy with a wavy hair type, and I find that right after I shower, with a little conditioner and leave in, I have the perfect hair, but after bed or a couple hours it falls straight. I try to combat it with pomade but half the time it just stays up and straightens and can even get frizzy. What do I do??
Matthew I recommend adding a gel at the end and scrunching out the crunch when your hair is dry :]
i have wavy hair but my hair is too moisturized and i dont even use conditioner. i know it’s supposed to be the opposite where my hair is really dry but it’s not.
Could I use a wet brush on dry hair? (sounds kinda dumb but it's really gentle)
If your hair is a looser pattern and isn’t thick and you’re gently brushing from the bottom up, section by section, you should be fine
Co-washing with low porosity hair, I'm 3A/2C and if I don't wash with shampoo every 4 days I get no clumps just frizz.
Yup, I don’t co wash at all but at the beginning of my hair journey I would do it here and there and it just wasn’t working for me, you definitely have to balance it out with shampoo
my hair always gets frizzy and poofy after I shower and I can never leave it out. I use a lot of hydrating products, and do everything I’m supposed to. My hair also doesn’t hold the curls/ waves and just drops. what am I doing wrong? 😂 please reply x
There are a myriad of reasons as to why your hair just puffs up instead of being defined and holding its shape including how you’re detangling, the products you’re using, the application method you’re using and how you’re sleeping on it. Try a couple different techniques (praying hands, raking, roping, etc) on both wet hair and damp hair. Also try plopping before air drying or diffusing and add in an alcohol free hair gel if you haven’t already!
Some products have humectants (for example honey u just need to look em up). Ingredients like those attract humidity which leads to frizz🥺
Im not 100% sure but i think you should try a product that has a little protein. I also watch swavy curly courtney and i think she has a video about this.
One thing I used to do after showering was brush it out. Big no-no, but my friends all did it. If you’re a wavy girl, it’s just gonna dry poofy. Best thing to do is after toweling and adjusting your hair, leave it alone haha. If that doesn’t work, try changing shampoos and how you apply products.
maybe if you use more light weight products would help. also scrunching if you don’t already do it. also washing and scrunching your hair upside down could help the water not weigh down your curls
What is scalp exfoliation??! Help plz
Do u have a video on it?
I’m confused my hairs leaning towards the dry side but my scalp gets very oily and itchy after wash days and I know you shouldn’t wash your hair more than 1-2 a week, maybe it’s my shampoo and conditioner?
I’m just starting the journey to get my natural hair. In terms of not damaging my hair at night, my hair is too thick to get it to the top of my head (either that or I just suck at styling hair). I try to sleep with braids in, but that can disrupt my wave pattern. Any advice for how I should go about this?
me a guy just trying to maintain: 👁👄👁
My wavy hair is kinda long so when I try the pineapple thing (I wrap the hair tie around twice and then on the third time i dont pull my hair through entirely so only the ends are sticking out) it makes my hair straighter kinda. When i wrap it it also becomes straighter. A bun also makes it straighter. Idk how to keep my waves intact while sleeping lol
I have an older video on how I tie my hair up to sleep but I’ll be uploading a newer one in the next few weeks giving you guys a few other options on how to tie your hair since I know long hair get stretched out really easily
can you do a video on how to pinapple your hair or an overnight hair video?
Already have one th-cam.com/video/X0kX_VfRaFw/w-d-xo.html
Yup I’ve been doing everything wrong I have 2b/2c hair and I’ve been treating it like curly hair. 😭 can I just clarify my hair with a sulfate shampoo ?
I used to have very curly hair when I was younger but my cousin cut my curls while they were still developing. I now have wavy hair and I treat it as straight hair. I’ve been trying to take care of it but I don’t know how. Can someone give me tips?
Can you do the curly hair method to a damaged hair? My hair is frizzy and I had some dead hairs too. :
I just cut my hair and I am really trying to work on making it curly it's wavy rn and it's slowly transitioning but when I do my hair afterwards there's always some stray hairs that stick up and idk what to do about that. Do you have any tips. I have really thick wavy a little curly hair 2b 2c
My hair in the front is like straight but in the back like super wavy and even some curlss
YES, same boat here my front pieces are wavyish but the back of my head is practically curly. Dunno what to do ;.;
@@katiebinondo ikr and people keep telling me " oh u forgot to straight the back"
Is your scalp oily ? Cause mine is and having to wash my hair every 2-3 days is making me lose my waves 😭
I used to have really curly hair when i was young and once i grew up i had a somewhat type 2B hair but like the few hairs at the back are really curly and make really short curls. I’ve been using generic shampoos all my life and i’ve been noticing that it wasnt as curly as before. My old shampoo was finished and due to quarantine we couldn’t go outside yet and i ended up using my moms shampoo for really straight hair TvT. I’ve been using that shampoo for 3 days straight and now i have thick straight-ish hair and i miss my curls TvT
i shampoo every 1-2 days and have never had any problems with dandruff or itchy scalp. should i still exfoliate my scalp?
How come your skin.looks so good
I had curly hair as a kid but then it kinda went to waves but because I have really long hair I plait it each night so it's kinda lost all of that. Is there a style I can wear at night that is suitable for wavy and very long hair
What kind of scalp exfoliator should I get?
How do you exfoliate your scalp?
My hair gets rlly wavy but it goes completely flat and poofy when I put it in a hairstyle like a ponytail or something like that. I cant preserve my waves properly and I hav a huge frizz problem
Is refreshing putting leave in conditioner and water in spray bottle and using it every day??
That is a way of refreshing yes! But you don’t always have to use water, you can always just emulsify a bit of product in your hands and gently apply it or you could use a refresher spray!
How do you use a hair mask?
I need help I’m only 13 so I’m really not sure what to do with my waves but when I wake up it’s got lots of knots so I brush my hair to get them out but then all the waves come out and it goes really frizzy I’ve tried loads of products to get my hair back wavy after but nothing works any advice
My hair is super curly apart from the front two sections, no matter what I do, when it tries it’ll become frizzy rather than curly like the rest of my hair. Do you have any advice ?? Thanks ❤️
Mine is exact opposite
What exactly is deep conditioning?
My hair is so much curly, I didn't like it when I was in school as I didn't have right products to take care of them. Now, it's a different story. For me wash day is a great day I guess. Anybody with me? 😀
LOVE
what do you think about Cantu ??
i have wavy hair and my underneath hair always has a few lovely curls but the top of my hair is flat and ugly with very little waves. my hair is super long (past my hips) and thick which i know can weigh it down but im sure my hair could still be wavy.
Long hair and wavy hair don’t seem to much due to the curls stretching because of the weight maybe get a haircut or diy a mask with healthy ingredient maybe protein masks on TH-cam could be helpful
My hair used to be wavy wen I was younger and idk what happened as it got thicker and longer it just kinda got straight and wavy at the ends ??
I'm not an expert, but whenever my hair grows out too long, it stretches my waves out. Whenever I get a haircut, my waves don't have as much weight on them so they're a bit more defined. Not saying this is the answer but I hope this info. helps :)
o and also, the opposite thing happened to me as I grew up! It happens with a lot of people for their hair texture to change as they go through puberty/ as they mature. When I was little mine was straight but then it started becoming poofy and frizzy until I found out it was untamed waves.
i have naturally wavy hair and i have been straightening it since 5th grade :( im a freshman in college rn n i really wanna embrace my natural hair. ty for this
I have a friend who does this every day and her hair is literally burnt 😭
@@arashf6094 i have mine professionally done so chemicals are involved and i dont use the flat iron, so it looks healthy. but im honestly sick of it when my roots grow i feel icky :( rip to ur friend's hair tho
@@chintoast ooh that’s sounds interesting
I have a a really wavy scalp/front hair and really wavy poof rarely curly idk what’s my hair type somebody help I think it’s 2b but not sure
I get my THICK wavy hair from my dad who is morrocan and Maltese but I live with my mum and she has super thin straight hair so she never understands my hair and always tells me to straighten it
Can you do an updated hair routine? 🙏🏽❤️
Coming next week!

I have really thick 3a/3c hair and I genuinely have no clue how to take care of it and I cant brush it if its dry or my hair will get like 15 times bigger QwQ
I'm trying to get my daughter's hair to look better. I have straight hair with 1 wave that starts at my ears lol so I just do whatever with mine honestly. Her's is wavy but frizzy and I think it's because we've been treating it like straight hair. I started co washing. If there's alcohol in the ingredients should I stay away from the product? I'm trying to get her hair to look good before she starts school. I'm lost on what to buy for her too. I found out about deva curl yesterday, I was going to buy it like 10 months ago but procrastinated thankfully.
The alcohol may be drying her hair out, you may wanna start with the Shea Moisture brand (it's pretty inexpensive and at target) I think the best thing to do is accept that there's gonna be a lot of trial and error in taking care of your daughter's hair (believe me I've been there with my own mom!). Also, if you happen to have a regular hair dresser with your daughter they might be able to recommend products and tips since they're really used to seeing a variety of hair types.
If she's old enough, give her a straightener as a gift.
@@lovelydolltime8006 no thank's she shouldn't have to do that
@@shorthanddeal I mean, if the kid wants a straightener, then yeah, she should own one.
ok ik ur saying what i’m not doing but... how do i do it?
My mom treated my hair as straight my entire life, so now I’m relying on TH-cam videos to help me.
When I have a bath my hair is wavy but when it’s dry it goes straight does that mean it’s wavy or straight?
Im 12 and i never new you had to do this stuff
Edit(wavy hair btw)
